How would you suggest to develop using the koolu tree without testing in real hardware? I doubt the Android emulator would work because it emulates different hardware--not even the same CPU instruction set as the Freerunner. You could try the Openmoko QEMU emulator. See the wiki at: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/QEMU If that works please update the info on the wiki!

Re: [android] Building Android from the Koolu Source
Hi, In order to make the compile process straightforward as Marcelo said, I've made these 2 scripts compile.sh and build-jffs2.sh (a combination of Sean scripts cp_android_OS and mkjffs2). Place them in the root of Koolu source tree and then to compile and produce de jffs2 image, do: $ ./compile.sh $./build-jffs2.sh release androidfs.jffs2 On Fri, Dec 5, 2008 at 4:14 AM, Marcelo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, On Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 8:43 PM, Jim Ancona [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've documented how I did it on the wiki at: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Android#Building_the_Koolu_Android_Source we would like this to be as straightforward as possible, so a few hours ago I added the required toolchain to the git repo and patched the necessary build files to use that toolchain by default.
